I don't have any pictures, but here is what's in my garden:

I have 13 canna seeds that I'm going to try to germinate and plant this year. I picked up the 3 plants as trash about 5 years ago, and they've been coming back every year.

We had to have 3 pine trees taken down last spring, and last fall I put in a new bed where they used to be. I went overboard and made an L shaped bed with a 10' cross section that is 35' wide and 20' long. Yes, that was a lot of manure, leaves, and compost.

I have a 16' by 8' patch of sunflowersin that new bed. Most of the patch is from seed I saved from last year's sunflowers (they're so pretty). I also have 2 16' by 6" strips of green beans.
